Callie's POV:

"um yea" i chuckle out "sooo anyways like I was saying my dad found out about me buying the ring and he flew out immediately from Miami. He even flew out the church's pastor to pray away the gay"

"Wait hold on I thought he liked me?" she says

"He did, he does which is why he agreed to let me protect you like I did"

"Wait I don't understand then why was he upset then?"

"stop interrupting me and you'll understand" i say giving her a smirk and winking at her

"ughhh okay okay continue" she smirks at me

"so he comes to Seattle and he did try to talk just him and I at first. Well mostly him yelling at me and telling me I can't possibly marry you and when I said I was still going through with it that's when he brought in the pastor basically trying to pray away my gayness. He likes you as a person and he just thought and was hoping this was just a phase I was going through. He didn't think I was serious. He said his little girl couldn't possibly be gay and marry another women. When I refused and said I still loved you he was beyond mad and stormed off. I thought that was the end of it, I hadn't heard from him in a while so I just thought that was the end of our relationship. It was a little while later when he showed up again out of the blue. He was saying how I'm a Torres and that I need to be apart of the family business and how it just being Aria helping him anymore wasn't enough. And of course I flat out refused I never wanted to run any businesses, I wanted to be a surgeon...I was happy being a surgeon. I was happy with my life the way it was. And he just... he couldn't accept that" i sight out

I feel her grab my hand looking at me with those gorgeous blue eyes "Calliope I am so sorry he didn't accept you and I'm sorry I didn't realize that"

"Arizona like I said none of this is your fault, at all"

"Do you wanna continue or do you wanna take a break and we can talk again later on? Whatever you choose it's okay" she says rubbing circles with her thumb on the back of my hand

"We can continue buttt first come give me a hug" i say as i pull her to sit in my lap and she hugs me. I feel so warm in her arms . I nuzzle my face in her neck inhaling her scent that I love so much. She eventually pulls back and goes sit in her own chair and i'm already missing being in her arms.

I take a deep breath "anyways he then tells me that I need to help run the real family business because Aria can't and he wants to step away a bit because he wanted to spend more time with my mom because she was sick. Of course I was questioning what he meant, and that was when he told me that the real business is him being in the Mafia. That the businesses he owns is just a front cover so he can do the real stuff he needs to do without any questions. I was so confused and I had no idea how any of it worked. So this has been going on forever, apparently Addison's family pays for all the stuff for the Mafia and my dad was just the face the one who done everything they are just the money and Addison had no clue about any of this either. So basically my dad is known as "the Boss" he used to be the head and done everything himself but he kinda retired I mean he's still in the game just he's only consulted for really big operations or something that could really impact the group. I took over as "the Gun" and I oversee the day to day operations and I have finally say before anybody makes a move. Aria is known as "sweet lips" she helps me out kinda like my assistant but more than just that because she's still in charge she just runs it by me. Addison's been my best friend since birth and with her family being involved I had told her about everything and she decided to join too we just call her "big red" to try to keep her identity protected . An Teddy well that was her call on if she was going to tell her or not and she did which ended up working out because she was also your best friend so she kept tabs on you, we just call her "bird" because you know she's obsessed" i say laughing at the thought of how Teddy is.

"Okay but none of that really explains why you left?" She says lookingatme "I already know y'all were all in the mafia but why? And why didn't you tell me any of this before...I would have understood"

"Because I couldn't!" I yell breaking the strong front I've been putting on "I-I...I could-couldn'ttt" i try to get out while I'm sobbing. I feel her arms around me and rubbing my back and I hear her whisper words in my ear trying to calm me down. She's rocking me back n forth and eventually she's able to calm me down. She notices and pulls back a little bit

"It's okay Calliope, how about we go join our friends for a bit and maybe get some rest and then later tonight we can come back here and make a fire...and maybe some smores?"

"Okay yea but can I stay in your arms for a little bit longer first?" i say asking shyly

"Of course Calliope theres no place i'd rather be" she says giving me her dimpled smile

Arizona's POV:

I'm not going to lie hearing Callie tell me all this defiantly has me shocked. But it still doesn't explain why she didn't tell me or why she left. After holding her for a while we get up and start to walk back to the house on the walk back I can't help but to hold her hand. It just feels normal and natural and I love feeling a connection to her. I see Tim sitting out on the porch

"Look who decided to come back" he says "nice to see you're still alive"

"Oh hush Timothy we just went to the lake"

"I'm just gonna go in" Callie says pointing to the door

"mmm so you guys seem nice and cozy guess you got back in her pants already?" He says giving me a smirk

"Uhh no my feelings are still there but nothing of the sorts will be happening" i say giving him a glare

"Honestly i'm surprised it didn't happen the first night. You always were able to get the girl quickly" he says laughing

"Yea yea Callie's just not anyone though"

"it'll all work out sis" he says patting me on the knee. My stomach starts growling loud enough for both of us to hear "dang sis go eat" he says laughing

"Yea I'm going, i didn't realize I was so hungry" i go in the kitchen and I just decide to make a quick sandwich. I still don't like those things but I don't feel like cooking, i'm kinda tired. Once I scarf down mine I decide to make one for Callie she has to be hungry too. I make my way to the bedroom and I see her fast asleep on the bed. She's sprawled out in the middle of the bed basically taking up the whole thing. I can't help but chuckle at how adorable and cute she looks. I leave her sandwich on the side table with a bottle of water and I give her a kiss on the forehead and leave the room.

I'm in the living room trying to find something to watch on tv. I settle on a show and get comfy. I must've dozed off because I'm woken by Teddy shaken me.

"Hey Z can we talk?"

"No"

"Come onnnn why not?"

"Because I don't want to!" I raise my voice at her

"you're my best friend" i hear her sigh out

"you really woke me up for this?! You wanna do this right now?!"

"I just want to be okay again...can't we just talk?"

"i said no Teddy!" I yell at her

I see Callie come into the room "i um i heard yelling and you never came to bed" she says softly

"i'm sorry i see you sleeping and left. I didn't want to wake you." I say turning to her ignoring Teddy. Callie just gives me her face and walks back to the room. I follow her shortly after

"Can you hold me?" She quietly asks me

"Of course come on" i say getting us comfy so i'm the big spoon "you took up the whole bed earlier ya know?" I say slightly laughing

"Did not! But thanks for the snack you left me" she says

"You did but get some more rest i'm here now"

"I always want you here" she whispers as she dozes back of to sleep

"I always want to be here" i whisper back kissing her cheek following her to sleep shortly after
